Steps to End Domestic Violence does not provide compensation for internships. Interns may receive academic credit for their time, as long as it is pre-approved by the interested student’s academic advisor and will fulfill their school’s specific requirements. Interns are assigned a supervisor within the organization to help with scheduling, duties and projects, plus educational and skill-building opportunities.

Please note that Steps to End Domestic Violence is not able to provide supervision by a social worker, which is a requirement of many social work internship placements. If you need an internship for your BSW or MSW program, please double check your program requirements before submitting an application.
